Hi I have a just turned one year old little boy he is still breastfed and always has been, won't take bottles or dummies never has.
His sleeping habits are terrible and i really don't know what to do about it. He eats solid food now and will try most things but still wants boobie during the day maybe four or so times. Unfortunately he has always fallen alseep on the bood and still does so its very hard to get him to sleep any other way especially at night.
Because his sleep is so irregular he has very short day naps unless I fall asleep with him and he stays near the boob. I have tried putting him down at 7 at night but I have to breastfeed him to sleep and sometimes it can take over an hour for him to be settled enough to go into his cot and then he wakes up every half an or so. I have kind of given up on that which I know is bad but I keep him down stairs with me and when he falls asleep put him in his car seat til hw wakes or I go to bed. I know I have to change things I just don't know what to do he still wakes every couple of hours during the night and will only settle with boob I'd say the only upside is he sleeps in til nineish (only in my bed though).
I need help to get the sleeping habits better and to try and stop the breastfeeding because I know I shouldn't care but I can see peoples looks when I say I'm still breastfeeding at over one and I think it will be good for him and me.
